Schedule:
Click here for the full Yom Kippur Schedule. Please read below for a few helpful explanations of the schedule:
- Minyans stay the same for Yom Kippur: With the exception of Neilah (see below), and unless you have been told otherwise, you should attend the service at the same shift/location as Rosh Hashanah (note: The "early" shift for Yom Kippur morning in the tents outside will begin at at 7:30 AM, while indoor services in Epstein will begin at 7:45 AM).
- Kol Nidre: Note that there will be two shifts for Kol Nidre outdoors (indoors there is just one shift, in both Epstein and Abramson). If you are attending an early shacharit minyan outdoors (as you did on Rosh Hashanah), you must attend the first shift of Kol Nidre (6:45 PM). If you are attending a late Shacharit minyan outdoors, you must attend the second shift of Kol Nidre (8:15 PM). Indoor Kol Nidre in Epstein and Abramson is at 6:45 PM.
- Neilah: Please note that if you are davening outside for Neilah, you have received or will soon receive an email with a special Neilah ticket which indicates which minyan you are in (the “early” minyan at 5:35 PM at or the “late” minyanim at 6:40 PM). Please print this new ticket and bring it to neilah. If you are davening indoors for neilah, the same ticket you have used for all of the High Holidays should be used for neilah, which starts at 6:15 PM (note that there will be one neilah service indoors in Abramson and that it will have open seating).
